Kim Dudko-Richardson

My aim is to work with you in a sensitive, non-judgemental and respectful way, supporting you in your time of trouble, so that you can move into a greater sense of well-being.

I have experience of working within many different areas, including anxiety, depression, burn-out, anger, grief, loss, trauma, stress, relationship troubles, drug abuse and more. I also have a great understanding of workplace stress and career issues.

Making the decision to attend counselling is perhaps the most difficult, challenging and positive step for you. I aim to make those steps into counselling as smooth as possible for you. For the therapeutic relationship to work effectively you will need to feel comfortable with me to allow our relationship to grow and develop.

I can offer you a safe and confidential environment in which you can express your feelings and I will work with you to gain a deeper insight into your difficulties. It is a journey we will travel together, and I will be with you for as long as you wish. Our counselling sessions are totally confidential, so you can talk about things you might not feel comfortable sharing with anyone else.

My aim is to help you find better ways to understand yourself, or to bring about changes to help you manage the way you think or behave to improve your mental and emotional well-being and find a more positive thought process.

My core approach to therapy is from a Person Centred base, where I believe you are the best person to navigate through your issues and understand what is right for you and together we will work to find your own answers and direction. 

I can offer you a safe and confidential environment in my private therapy room in which you can express your feelings and I will work with you to gain a deeper insight into your difficulties. It is a journey we will travel together, and I will be with you for as long as you wish. Our counselling sessions are totally confidential, so you can talk about things you might not feel comfortable sharing with anyone else.

I know how hard it is just to get this far but this is the first step in your journey.

​You are not alone I will be with you every step of the way in a safe, supportive and totally confidential environment, which I am ethically bound. The focus throughout is on what you feel, what you think, and what you decide.
